BACKGROUND

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most prevalent form of dementia. It is a neurodegenerative disorder that is associated (though not exclusively) with aging. The disorder is clinically characterized by a progressive loss of memory, cognition, reasoning and judgment that leads to an extreme mental deterioration and ultimately death. The disorder is pathologically characterized by the deposition of extracellular plaques and the presence of neurofibrillary tangles. These plaques are considered to play an important role in the pathogenesis of the disease.

These plaques mainly comprise of fibrillar aggregates of β-amyloid peptide (Aβ), which are products of the amyloid precursor protein (APP), a 695 amino-acid protein. APP is initially processed by β-secretase forming a secreted peptide and a membrane bound C99 fragment. The C99 fragment is subsequently processed by the proteolytic activity of γ-secretase. Multiple sites of proteolysis on the C99 fragment lead to the production of a range of smaller peptides (Aβ 37-42 amino acids). N-terminal truncations can also be found e.g. Aβ (4-42, 11-42) for convenience Aβ40 and Aβ42 as used herein incorporates these N-terminal truncated peptides. Upon secretion, the Aβ peptides initially form soluble aggregates which ultimately lead to the formation of insoluble deposits and plaques. Aβ42 is believed to be the most neurotoxic, the shorter peptides have less propensity to aggregate and form plaques. The Aβ plaques in the brain are also associated with cerebral amyloid angiopathy, hereditary cerebral hemorrhage with amyloidosis, multi infarct dementia, dementia pugilistisca, inclusion body myositis and Down's Syndrome.

γ-secretase is an association of four proteins: Aph1, Nicastrin, Presenillin and Pen-2 (review De Strooper 2003, Neuron 38, 9). Aβ42 is selectively increased in patients carrying particular mutations in one of these components, presenilin. These mutations are correlated with early onset a familial AD. Inhibition of γ-secretase resulting in the lowering of Aβ42 is a desirable activity for the pharmaceutical community and numerous inhibitors have been found, e.g., Thompson et al (Bio. Org. and Med. Chem. Letters 2006, 16, 2357-63), Shaw et al (Bio. Org. and Med. Chem. Letters 2006, 17, 511-16) and Asberom et al (Bio. Org. and Med. Chem. Letters 2007, 15, 2219-2223). Inhibition of γ-secretase though is not without side-effects, some of which are due to the γ-secretase complex processing substrates other than C99, for e.g. Notch. A more desirable approach is to modulate the proteolytic activity of the γ-secretase complex in a manner that lowers Aβ42 in favor of shorter peptides without significantly affecting the activity of γ-secretase on substrates such as Notch.

Compounds that have shown modulation of γ-secretase include certain non-steroidal, anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), for example Flurbiprofen, (Stock et al Bio. Org. and Med. Chem. Letters 2006, 16, 2219-2223). Other publications that disclose agents said to reduce Aβ42 through the modulation of γ-secretase include: WO 04/074232, WO 05/054193, Perreto et al Journal of Medicinal Chemistry 2005, 48 5705-20, WO05/108362, WO 06/008558, WO 06/021441, WO 06/041874, WO 06/045554, WO04110350, WO 06/043964, WO 05/115990, EP1847524, WO 07/116,228, WO 07/110,667, WO 07/124,394, EP184752, EP 01849762, WO 07/125,364.

DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURE

FIG. 1 demonstrates the desirable effect on Aβ after the administration of example 1301 (2-(5-chloro-4′-isopropyl-6-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)biphenyl-3-yl)-3-cyclopropylpropanoic acid) to in C57BL/6 mice when give one dose at 30 mg/kg in a Solutol HS 15:Ethanol:Water (15:10:75) formulation (measuring Aβ at 3 hours).

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Described below are compounds within Formulas I and II as well as methods for preparing the compounds and using the compounds to treat one or more symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. The compounds of the disclosure are gamma secretase modulators (GSMs), i.e., compounds that act to shift the relative levels of Aβ peptides produced by γ-secretase. In some cases the compounds alter the relative levels of Aβ peptides produced by γ-secretase without significantly changing the total level of Aβ peptides produced.

General Reaction Schemes

The tetrasubstituted benzene compounds of Formulas I and II may be prepared by multistep organic synthetic routes from known fluoronitrobenzene and chloronitrobenzene starting materials e.g. 2,4-difluoronitrobenzene, 4-fluoro-2-cyano-nitrobenzene, 3-nitro-4-chlorobenzene, 2,4,5-trifluoronitrobenzene, 2,4,5-trichloronitrobenzene or alternatively from 4-hydroxyphenyl and 4-aminophenyl acetic acid starting materials by one skilled in the art of organic synthesis using established organic synthesis procedures.

The 1-position acetic acid moiety common to compounds of Formulas I and II, as the free acid itself or as an ester derivative thereof, is already present in the case of a 4-hydroxyphenyl acetic acid or 4-hydroxyphenyl acetic acid ester starting material. In the case of a 4-fluoronitrobenzene starting materials or intermediates, the acetic acid moiety can be introduced by standard nucleophilic aromatic substitution of the 4-fluoro group with an unsubstituted malonic ester (eg diethyl malonate) or a malonic ester derivative already bearing an R₁ group (eg. diethyl 2-isobutylmalonate). Introduction of the X—R₃ and Y—R₄ groups or intermediate groups that are further elaborated to X—R₃ and Y—R₄ can be carried out by substitution or manipulation of suitable 3 or 4-position functional groups in appropriate starting materials or intermediates en route to Formulas I and II respectively. In cases where X or Y is a bond, a 3 or 4-position halogen or triflate group is replaced with an aryl or heteroaryl group by carbon-carbon bond forming reaction typically a Suzuki coupling reaction. In cases where X or Y is O, S or N, a 3 or 4-position halogen (eg the corresponding 2-fluoro group of a 2,4-difluoronitrobenzene starting material) substitution reaction is performed using HO—R₃ or HS—R₃ or H₂N—R₃ and a base (eg NaH, K₂CO₃) in a suitable solvent (eg DMF). Compounds where X or Y is —S(O)— or —S(O₂)— are prepared by oxidation of compounds where X or Y is S. Compounds where X or Y is —S(O)₂N(H)—, —S(O)₂N(R₅)— can be prepared by conversion of a 3 or 4-position nitro group (eg the nitro group of the nitrobenzene starting material) to a sulfonyl chloride via Sandmeyer reaction followed by addition of the corresponding amine. Compounds where X or Y is N(H)S(O)₂— or —N(R₅)S(O)₂— can be prepared by reduction of a 3 or 4-position nitro group to the corresponding aniline followed by reaction with the corresponding sulfonylchloride. Compounds where X or Y is NHC(O)— or —N(R₅)C(O)— can be prepared by reduction of a 3 or 4-position nitro group to the corresponding aniline followed by reaction with the corresponding carboxylic acid chloride. Compounds where X or Y is a —C(O)— can be prepared by addition of an organometallic reagent (e.g., a Grignard reagent or organolithium) to a 3 or 4-position cyano group directly or in a 2-step sequence by addition of an organometallic reagent to a 3 or 4-position carboxaldehyde group followed by oxidation. Compounds where X or Y is —C(O)NH— or C(O)N(R₅)—)— can be prepared by addition of a corresponding amine to a 3 or 4-position carboxylic acid which in turn may be prepared by hydrolysis of a 3 or 4-position cyano group. Either aromatic nucleophilic substitution of a 2-fluoro-1-nitrobenzene intermediate or alkylation of a 3 or 4-hydroxybenzene intermediate with the corresponding alkyl bromide or triflate may be used to prepare compounds of Formulas I and II where the R₄ group is OCH₂CF₃, C₂-C₄ alkoxy, or cyclopropyloxymethyl. Compounds wherein the R₄ group is an alkyl, aryl or heteroaryl group attached by a carbon-carbon bond may be prepared by a Suzuki coupling reaction. In this process an aryl or heteroaryl boronic acid or borate ester is reacted with an intermediate compound having a 3 or 4-position halogen or triflate group. This method results in replacement of the halogen or triflate group with an aryl or heteroaryl group which is then bonded to the intermediate at the carbon atom previously bearing the boronic acid or ester group. Compounds wherein the R₄ group is a heteroaryl group attached by a carbon-nitrogen bond may be prepared by reacting a 3 or 4-iodo intermediate with a heteroaromatic heterocycle having an acidic N—H group under Ulman reaction or copper catalyzed reaction conditions.

Compounds of Formulas I and II wherein A=tetrazole may be prepared from their corresponding nitriles A=CN which are available via dehydration of the corresponding primary amides A=CONH₂ whose preparation is described above. Thus, treatment of the nitrile with an azide, such as sodium azide or tributylstanyl azide (Bu₃SnN₃) at a temperature of 20-100° C., optionally with a solvent such as DMF, THF or DMSO.

Compounds of the disclosure of Formula III in which R₁ is R₈ an alkyl, cycloalkylalkyl, heterocycloalkylalkyl, alkoxyalkyl, heteroarylalkyl, or an arylalkyl group, R₂ is R₉ a hydrogen, alkyl, cycloalkylalkyl, heterocycloalkylalkyl, alkoxyalkyl, heteroarylalkyl, or an arylalkyl group, Y is O, X is a bond, R₃ is Z, R₄ and R₅ are as described previously and thus having general Formula XXIV may be prepared generally as depicted in Scheme 1.

Thus, as depicted in Scheme 1 an alkyl, cycloalkylalkyl, heterocycloalkylalkyl, alkoxyalkyl, heteroarylalkyl or arylalkyl R₈ group is introduced in the first step by treating ethyl 4-benzyloxyphenylacetate one equivalent of a suitable deprotonating base such as sodium hydride in an appropriate organic solvent followed by the addition of the corresponding reactive alkyl bromide R₈Br such as isobutylbromide to yield XX where R₉ is hydrogen. In cases where a second alkyl or aralkyl group is present this alkylation step is repeated using R₉Br as an alkylating agent. In cases where a spirocyclic ring is formed by R₈ and R₉ (e.g. cyclopropyl) then the appropriate dibromide is used (e.g. dibromoethane in the case of cyclopropyl). The benzyl group is then removed under standard catalytic hydrogenation conditions and the resulting phenol is treated with bromine in acetic acid to give the bromophenol intermediate XXI. Nitration of XXI then yields nitrophenol intermediate XXII which then us subjected to a standard base mediated aliphatic or aromatic nucleophilic substitution reaction with an alkyl or aryl halide R₄—X to give intermediate XXIII where R₄ is alkyl, cycloalkylalkyl, heterocycloalkylalkyl, alkoxyalkyl, arylalkyl, heteroarylalkyl, aryl or heteroaryl. This is then followed by introduction of the Z group by standard reactions. Such reactions are exemplified by the well established Suzuki coupling of a substituted aryl or heteroaryl boronic acid derivative Z—B(OH)₂ using a suitable palladium(0) catalyst typically bearing with phosphine ligands (e.g. Pd(PPh₃)₄ or tetrakistriphenylphosphine) in the case where Z is linked by a carbon-carbon bond and by copper (eg CuI) mediated Ulman type coupling of a heteroaryl ring bearing an active N—H group where Z is a heteroaryl ring linked by a nitrogen-carbon bond.

After introduction of the Z group, the nitro group is converted to the corresponding aniline by any number of standard reduction conditions (eg SnCl₂ reduction). This is followed by conversion of the resulting aniline to the diazonium salt which is then converted “in situ” either directly to R₅ either directly in the case where R₅ is F, Cl, Br, CN, OH, C1-C4 alkoxy or SR₆, by using the appropriate copper salt ie CuCl, CuBr, CuCN or nucleophile ie water, alcohol or thiol or in a subsequent step e.g. oxidation (eg with MCPBA) of the product of thiol coupling when R₅ is S(O)₂R₆; e.g. Suzuki coupling of the bromide product when R₅ is heteroaryl e.g. treatment of an intermediate sulfonylchloride obtained via CuCl/SO₂ conditions with an amine HN(R₇)₂, when R₅ is S(O)₂N(R₇)₂, e.g. Burton trifluoromethylation reaction of the iodide product (Burton, D. J.; Wiemers, D. M. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1985, 107, 5014 and 1986, 108, 832; Miller, J. A., Coleman, M. C.; Matthews, R. S. J. Org. Chem. 1993, 58, 2637) when R₅ is CF₃ Standard ester hydrolysis yields compounds of Formula XXIV.

Compounds of the disclosure of Formula III in which R₁ is OH, OR₆, SR₆, NHR₇, N(R₇)₂ NHC(O)R₆ or NHCO₂R₆; R₂ is H; Y is O, X is a bond, R₃ is Z, R₄ and R₅ are as described previously and thus having general Formula XXVII may be prepared generally as depicted in Scheme 2. Thus, as depicted in Scheme 2 bromination of intermediates of general Formula XXV, prepared according to Scheme 1, e.g. with N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) yields intermediate XXVI. In a subsequent step the Br atom is replaced by a suitable alkoxide, thiolate or masked amine nucleophile (eg azide or N₃). The product of the latter reaction is either directly subjected to ester hydrolysis or further processed in optional steps (eg by conversion the masked amine to an amino group followed by reductive amination to give mono or dialkylamine derivatives, and optionally acylation or carbamoylation of such amine derivatives) and then subjected to final ester hydrolysis to give compounds of Formula XXVII in which R₁₀ is OH, OR₆, SR₆, NHR₇, N(R₇)₂ NHC(O)R₆ or NHCO₂R₆

Compounds of the disclosure of Formula III and IV in which R₁ is R₈ an alkyl, cycloalkylalkyl, heterocycloalkylalkyl, alkoxyalkyl, heteroarylalkyl, or an arylalkyl group, R₂ is R₉ a hydrogen, alkyl, cycloalkylalkyl, heterocycloalkylalkyl, alkoxyalkyl, heteroarylalkyl, X and Y are a bond, R₃ and R₄ are respectively Z₁ and Z₂ representing independently chosen Z groups as defined above and R₅ is as described previously and thus having general Formula XXX may be prepared generally as depicted in Scheme 3 starting from compounds of general Formula XXII which can be prepared as described in Scheme 1.

Compounds of Formula V in which R₁ is R₈ an alkyl, cycloalkylalkyl, heterocycloalkylalkyl, alkoxyalkyl, heteroarylalkyl, or an arylalkyl group, R₂ is R₉ a hydrogen, alkyl, cycloalkylalkyl, heterocycloalkylalkyl, alkoxyalkyl, heteroarylalkyl; X is Q=O, S, or SO₂; R₅ is F or Cl; R₃ and Z are as described previously and thus having general Formula XXXIV may be prepared generally as depicted in Scheme 4. Accordingly, the 4-halo group of 2,4,5-trifluoronitrobenzene or 2,4,5-trichloronitrobenzene is selectively displaced by reaction with a 2-substituted diethylmalonate R₈YCH(CO₂Et)₂ under basic conditions (eg NaH/DMF) followed by hydrolysis and esterification to give intermediate XXXI. Subsequently the 2-halo group undergoes nucleophilic aromatic substitution reaction by treatment with a R₃-J-H compound (wherein J is O, S) under basic conditions (eg NaH/DMF) followed by reduction and Sandmeyer reaction to give iodide XXXII.

Suzuki coupling then gives intermediates of general formula XXXIII. Introduction of an R₉ group may be conducted using alkylation conditions described above. Compounds wherein J is SO₂ may be prepared by standard oxidation of intermediates XXXIII wherein J is S. Final products having general Formula XXXIV are then prepared by standard ester hydrolysis.

Compounds of Formula IV in which R₁ is R₈ an alkyl, cycloalkylalkyl, heterocycloalkylalkyl, alkoxyalkyl, heteroarylalkyl, or an arylalkyl group, R₂ is R₉ a hydrogen, alkyl, cycloalkylalkyl, heterocycloalkylalkyl, alkoxyalkyl, heteroarylalkyl; X is O; R₅ is Cl; R₃ and Z are as described previously and thus having general Formula XXXVIII may be prepared generally as depicted in Scheme 5. Accordingly, the 4-fluoro group of 2,4-difluoronitrobenzene is selectively displaced by reaction with a 2-substituted diethylmalonate R₈CH₂(CO₂Et)₂ under basic conditions (eg NaH/DMF) followed by hydrolysis and esterification to give intermediate XXXV. Subsequently the 2-halo group undergoes nucleophilic aromatic substitution reaction by treatment with a R₃—O—H compound under basic conditions (eg NaH/DMF) followed by reduction and chlorination reaction (eg with N-chlorosuccinimide) to give chloroaniline intermediates of general formula XXXVI. Sandmeyer iodination reaction to followed by Suzuki coupling then gives intermediates of general formula XXXVII. Introduction of an R₉ group may be conducted using alkylation conditions described above. Final products having general Formula XXXVIII are then prepared by standard ester hydrolysis.

Compounds of Formula IV in which R₁ is R₈ an alkyl, cycloalkylalkyl, heterocycloalkylalkyl, alkoxyalkyl, heteroarylalkyl, or an arylalkyl group, R₂ is R₉ a hydrogen, alkyl, cycloalkylalkyl, heterocycloalkylalkyl, alkoxyalkyl, heteroarylalkyl; X is J=O, S; R₅ is NO₂, NH₂, CN, SR₆, SO₂R₆, SO₂N(R₇)₂ F, Cl, Br; R₃ and Z are as described previously and thus having general Formula XLII may be prepared generally as depicted in Scheme 6. Accordingly, the 2-fluoro group of 2,4-difluoronitrobenzene is selectively displaced by reaction with a an alcohol or thiol of formula R₃-J-H under basic conditions (eg NaH/DMF). The 4-fluoro group of the resulting product is substituted with diethylmalonate under basic conditions (eg NaH/DMF) followed by hydrolysis and esterification to give intermediates of Formula XXXIX. Reduction of the nitro group of XXXIX followed by nitration of the resulting aniline give nitroaniline intermediates of Formula XL. Sandmeyer iodination reaction, followed by Suzuki coupling and finally alkylation reaction to introduce R₈ then gives intermediates of general Formula XLI. The nitro group of XLI may be optionally reduced via any number of standard reduction conditions (eg SnCl₂) to an aniline which may in turn optionally be converted to diverse other R₅ groups either directly or in multistep procedures. Thus, in the case where R₅ is F, Cl, Br, CN, OH, C1-C4 alkoxy or SR₆, diazotization of the aniline is followed by direct “in situ” conversion to R₅ using the appropriate copper salt ie CuCl, CuBr, CuCN or nucleophile ie water, alcohol or thiol. Intermediates where R₅ is S(O)₂R₆ may be prepared by subsequent step oxidation (eg with MCPBA) of the above products of thiol coupling wherein R₅ is SR₆. Intermediates where R₅ is eg heteroaryl, C₂-C₄ alkynyl or cyclopropyl may be prepared by subsequent Suzuki coupling of the above products wherein R₅ is Br or I. Intermediates where R₅ is CF₃ may be prepared by Burton reaction of the above products wherein R₅ is I. Intermediates where R₅ is S(O)₂N(R₇)₂, may be prepared by subsequent reaction of above direct sulfonylchloride products (obtained via CuCl/SO₂ conditions) with an amine HN(R₇)₂, Final products having general Formula XLII are then prepared by optional alkylation reaction to introduce R₉ followed by standard ester hydrolysis.

Reduction of the nitro group of XXXIX followed by bromination (eg with NBS) of the resulting aniline and prepared by 1 alkylation reaction to introduce R₉ gives bromoaniline intermediates of Formula XLIII Suzuki coupling reaction substitutes Z groups for the Br group to give intermediates of general Formula XLIV. The aniline group in intermediates of Formula XLIV may in turn optionally be converted to diverse other R₅ groups either directly or in multistep procedures. Thus, in the case where R₅ is F, Cl, Br, CN, OH, C1-C4 alkoxy or SR₆, diazotization of the aniline is followed by direct “in situ” conversion to R₅ using the appropriate copper salt ie CuCl, CuBr, CuCN or nucleophile ie water, alcohol or thiol. Intermediates where R₅ is S(O)₂R₆ may be prepared by subsequent step oxidation (eg with MCPBA) of the above products of thiol coupling wherein R₅ is SR₆. Intermediates where R₅ is eg heteroaryl, C2-C4 alkynyl or cyclopropyl may be prepared by subsequent Suzuki coupling of the above products wherein R₅ is Br or I. Intermediates where R₅ is CF3 may be prepared by Burton reaction of the above products wherein R₅ is I. Intermediates where R₅ is S(O)₂N(R₇)₂, may be prepared by subsequent reaction of above direct sulfonylchloride products (obtained via CuCl/SO₂ conditions) with an amine HN(R₇)₂, Final products having general Formula XLII are then prepared by optional alkylation reaction to introduce R₉ followed by standard ester hydrolysis.

Compounds of Formula IV in which R₁ is R₈ an alkyl, cycloalkylalkyl, heterocycloalkylalkyl, alkoxyalkyl, heteroarylalkyl, or an arylalkyl group, R₂ is R₉ a hydrogen, alkyl, cycloalkylalkyl, heterocycloalkylalkyl, alkoxyalkyl, heteroarylalkyl; X—R₃ and R₅ are identical (J-R3 in Scheme 8) and are either C1-C4 alkoxy or SR₆ groups; and Z is as described previously and thus having general Formula L may be prepared generally as depicted in Scheme 8. Accordingly, the 2 and 6-fluoro groups of 2,4,6-trifluoronitrobenzene are selectively displaced by reaction with a an alcohol or thiol of formula R₃-J-H under basic conditions (eg NaH/DMF). The 4-fluoro group of the resulting product is substituted with diethylmalonate under basic conditions (eg NaH/DMF) followed by hydrolysis and esterification to give intermediates of Formula XLVIII. Reduction of the nitro group of followed by Sandmeyer iodination reaction of the resulting aniline gives intermediates of Formula XLVIII. Suzuki coupling and followed by alkylation reaction to introduce R₈ then gives intermediates of general Formula XLIX. Final products having general Formula L are then prepared by optional alkylation reaction to introduce R₉ followed by standard ester hydrolysis.

Enantioselective Methods

Compounds of formulas I-IX may be prepared in an enantioselectively, this can be accomplished via resolution via chiral HPLC (CHIRALPAK-AD H (250×4.6 mm, 5 μm). Mobile phase: Hexane (0.1% TFA):IPA (93:7), Flow rate 0.8 mL/min., Diluent Hexane:IPA (90:10); Column temperature 40° C.) or via asymmetric synthesis. The phenyl acetic acids of formula (XXXV) are converted into the corresponding acid chlorides, via treatment with SOCl₂ or oxalyl chloride with a catalytic amount of DMF. The reaction is performed in an inert solvent such as CH₂Cl₂, CHCl₃, THF, or toluene at a temperature of 0-80° C. The acid chloride is treated with either (R)- or (S)-4-benzyloxazolidin-2-one to (R isomer depicted-XXXXVI) give the oxazolidinone (XXXVII). The oxazolidinone ( ) is then subjected to a base such as NaHMDs, LiHMDS, KHMDS, BuLi or KO^(t)Bu in an inert solvent such as THF, Me-THF or Et₂O at a temperature of −78 to 0° C. The subsequent enolate is then treated with the appropriate electrophile to give the alkylated oxazolidinone (XXXVIII). The chiral auxillary is removed under conditions such as LiOH/H₂O₂ followed by a reductive work up with a reagent such as sodium bi-sulfite to give the desired products of formulas (I-IX).

Alternatively the racemic compound of formula (1-IX) may be coupled to the Evans chiral oxazolidinone via an intermediate such as the corresponding acid chloride. Upon completion of the coupling, the reaction produces a mixture of diastereoisomers which may be separated by methods such as flash chromatography or crystallization to give single diastereoisomers or enriched mixtures favouring one diastereoisomer over the other (see scheme 10). The auxillary may be removed as described previously.

Pharmacology Experimental Measurement of Aβ In Vitro

The Aβ peptide is proteolytically derived from a larger integral membrane amyloid precursor protein (APP). The production of Aβ is derived from proteolytic cleavages at its N- and C-termini within β-APP by the β and γ-secretase activities, respectively. Transfected cells overexpressing β-APP or its equivalent producing the Aβ peptide can be used to monitor the effects of synthetic compounds on the production of Aβ.

To analyze a compound's effects on the concentrations of the various products of the γ-secretase cleavage activity, the Aβ peptides, various methods known to a person skilled in the art are available. Examples of such methods, but not limited to, include mass-spectrometric identification as described by Wang et al, 1996, J. Biol. Chem. 271:31894-31902) or detection by specific antibodies using, for example, ELISA's.

Examples of such assays for measuring the production of Aβ_(total), Aβ₄₀ and Aβ₄₂ by ELISA include but are not limited to those described by Vassar et al., 1999, Science 286:735-741. Suitable kits containing the necessary antibodies and reagents for such an analysis are available, for example, but not limited to the Genetics Company, Wako, Covance, and Innogenetics. The kits are essentially used according to the manufacturers recommendations similar to the assay that is described by Citron et al., (1997) Nature Medicine 3:67-72 and the original assay described by Seubert et al., (1992) Nature 359:325-327.

Screening was carried out using the human embryonic kidney cell line HEK-293 overexpressing an amyloid precursor protein (APP) transgene grown in Pro-293a CDM media (BioWhittaker). Cells were grown to approximately 70-80% confluency subsequent to the addition of test compounds. The growth media was aspirated or removed, the cells washed, and replaced with 100 μl of compound, appropriately diluted in serum free media. The plates are then incubated for 16-18 hours at 37° C.

Conditioned Medium samples are removed for analysis/quantitation of the various Aβ peptide levels by differential ELISA's as described in accompanying instructions to the kits. Those compounds examined which do not demonstrate any overt toxicity or non-specific inhibitory properties are investigated further for their Aβ inhibitory effects and form the basis of medicinal chemistry efforts and to study the effect of the compounds in different experimental conditions and configurations.

Experimental Procedures for Rat Primary Cortical Culture-Based Abeta₁ _(→) _(42/1) _(→) _(x) ELISAs

Rat primary neocortical cultures are established through the dissection of the neocortices from 10-12 E17 embryos harvested from time-pregnant SD (Sprague Dawley) rats (Charles River Laboratories). Following dissection, the combined neocortical tissue specimen volume is brought up to 5 mL with dissection medium (DM; 1×HBSS (Invitrogen Corp., cat#14185-052)/10 mM HEPES (Invitrogen Corp., cat#15630-080)/1 mM Sodium Pyruvate (Invitrogen Corp., cat#11360-070)) supplemented with 100 uL Trypsin (0.25%; Invitrogen Corp., cat#15090-046) and 100 uL DNase I (0.1% stock solution in DM, Roche Diagnostics Corp., cat#0104159), undergoing digestion via incubation at 37° C. for 10 minutes. Digested tissue is washed once in plating medium (PM; NeuroBasal (Invitrogen Corp., cat#21103-049)/10% Horse Serum (Sigma-Aldrich Co., cat#H1138)/0.5 mM L-Glutamine (Invitrogen Corp., cat#25030-081)), then resuspended in a fresh 10 mL PM volume for trituration. Trituration consists of 18 cycles with a 5 mL-serological pipet, followed by 18 cycles with a flame-polished glass Pasteur pipet. The volume is elevated to 50 mL with PM, the contents then passed over a 70 um cell-strainer (BD Biosciences, cat#352350) and transferred directly to a wet-ice bath. The cell-density is quantified using a hemacytometer, and diluted to allow for the plating of 50000 cells/well/100 uL in pre-coated 96-well PDL-coated plates (Corning, Inc., cat#3665). Cells are incubated for 4-5 hours at 37° C./5% CO₂, after which time the entire volume is exchanged to feeding medium (FM; NeuroBasal/2% B-27 Serum-free supplement (Invitrogen Corp., cat#17504-044)/0.5 mM L-Glutamine/1% Penicillin-Streptomycin (Invitrogen Corp., cat#15140-122)). The cultures undergo two 50% fresh FM exchanges, after 3 days in vitro (DIV3), and again at DIV7.

Human C-terminal recognition-site Abeta₁ _(→) ₄₂ and Rat N-terminal recognition-site Abeta₁ _(→) _(x) capture-antibodies, diluted 1:300 in 0.05M Carbonate-Bicarbonate buffer (Sigma-Aldrich Co., C-3041), are use to coat (100 uL/well) flat-bottomed F96 MicroWell™ (MaxiSorp™ surface) plates (Nalge Nunc International, cat#439454), and incubated overnight at 4° C. for eventual use in the ELISA assay. Compounds to be screened are solubilized in dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO, Sigma-Aldrich Co., cat#15493-8), and further diluted in DMSO in an eight-point dose-response format. Into 96-well plates, dose-response compound dilutions (1000× the desired final concentration) are stamped out at 2 uL/well, in duplicate (up to 3 compounds/plate), as a daughter plate. In addition, DMSO and N—[N-(3,5-difluorophenacetyl)-L-alanyl]-S-phenylglycine t-butyl ester (DAPT), a gamma-secretase inhibitor (GSI), are incorporated as solvent and positive controls, respectively. With the assistance of liquid-handling automation, the compound daughter plate is diluted 1:500 with warmed FM, and two DIV8 culture plates are leveled to 60 uL/well, and immediately overlaid with 60 uL/well of the 2× diluted daughter plate. The plates are returned to the 37° C./5% CO₂-incubator for 24 hours.

Each coated capture-antibody ELISA plate undergoes 4×250 uL/well Phosphate-buffered saline with 0.05% Tween®-20 SigmaUltra (PBS-T; Fluka, cat#79383/Sigma-Aldrich Co., cat#P7949) washes. The ELISA plates are then overlaid with 120 uL/well PBS-T supplemented with 1% Bovine Serum Albumin Diluent/Blocking solution (BSA; Kirkegaard & Perry Laboratories (KPL), Inc., cat#50-61-01) and incubate at room-temperature on an orbital shaker for a minimum of 2 hours.

Rat Abeta₁ _(→) ₄₂ and rat Abeta₁ _(→) ₄₀ peptide (American Peptide Co., cat#62-0-84/62-0-86A) DMSO stock solutions are serially-diluted 1:2 in FM yielding a final concentration range of 0-500 pg/mL, to be plated on the respective ELISA plates for determination of the corresponding standard curve, from which concentrations of specific or total Abeta peptides in the presence of a particular drug concentration can be calculated. The conditioned medium from the duplicate culture plates are collected and combined into one round-bottom 96-well transfer plate which is incubated on wet-ice. The culture plates are rinsed once with 120 ul/well FM, and replenished immediately with 100 uL/well FM, being returned to the incubator for 10 minutes. Cell-viability is evaluated by adding 20 uL/well of warmed CellTiter 96® Aq_(ueous) One Solution (MTS/PES; Promega Corp., cat#G3581), and returning the plates to the incubator for 30-90 minutes. Plate absorbance at 492 nm is read on a spectrophotometer, and from which, the ratio of absorbance of compound-treated cells to absorbance of solvent (DMSO)-treated control cells is calculated. The calculation of the corresponding EC₅₀ values is performed following non-linear curve-fitting using GraphPad Prism® software.

For each ELISA plate, a corresponding transfer-plate is created containing 120 uL/well of either the rat Abeta₁ _(→) ₄₂ or rat Abeta₁ _(→) ₄₀ peptide standard solutions, in duplicate, and 110-115 uL/well of the collected conditioned-medium plate, half designated for the Abeta₁ _(→) ₄₂ ELISA, and the other half for the Abeta₁ _(→) _(x) ELISA. The ELISA plates undergo a second set of 4×250 uL/well PBS-T washes, immediately followed by being overlaid with their designated transfer-plate. The ELISA plates incubate on an orbital-shaker for 16-18 hours at 4° C.

Detection antibody solution is prepared by diluting beta-Amyloid 17-24 (4G8) biotinylated monoclonal antibody (Covance, Inc., cat#SIG-39240-200) 1:1500 in PBS-T supplemented with 0.67% BSA. The ELISA plates undergo 4×250 uL/well PBS-T washes, and are overlaid with 100 uL/well of 4G8 diluted detection-antibody solution. The Abeta₁ _(→) ₄₂ ELISA plates are incubated on an orbital-shaker at room-temperature for 90 minutes, the Abeta₁ _(→) _(x) ELISA plates for 60 minutes.

In order to conjugate the biotinylated monoclonal 4G8 antibody, following 4×250 uL/well PBS-T washes, the ELISA plates undergo a one-hour incubation at 100 ul/well with a 1:15000 dilution of Streptavidin-HRP conjugate (Jackson ImmunoResearch Laboratories, Inc., cat#016-030-0840) on an orbital-shaker at room temperature.

Following a final set of 4×250 uL/well PBS-T washes, the ELISA plates are overlaid with 100 ul/well SureBlue 3,3′,5,5′-Tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) Microwell Peroxidase substrate solution (Kirkegaard & Perry Laboratories, Inc., cat#52-00-02), protected from light, and incubate for 20-45 minutes at room temperature. At the point the desired level of development is attained, 100 ul/well of TMB Stop solution (Kirkegaard & Perry Laboratories, Inc., cat#50-85-05) is added, and the plate thoroughly shaken in preparation for reading on a spectrophotometer. SureBlue TMB Microwell Substrate develops a deep blue color in the presence of a peroxidase-labeled conjugate, and turns yellow when stopped by acidification, allowing for plate absorbance at 450 nm to be read. From the calculation of the standard curve, the compound dose-response curves, normalized to DAPT performance, are plotted as % DMSO using GraphPad Prism® software, and the corresponding EC₅₀ values calculated.

Measurement of Aβ 42 In Vivo

Compounds of the invention can be used to treat AD in mammal such as a human or alternatively in a validated animal model such as the mouse, rat, or guinea pig. The mammal may not be diagnosed with AD, or may not have a genetic predisposition for AD, but may be transgenic such that it overproduces and eventually deposits Aβ in a manner similar to that seen in the human. Additionally, non-transgenic animals may also be used to determine the biochemical efficacy of the compound, with an appropriate assay.

Compounds can be administered in any standard form using any standard method. For example, but not limited to, compounds can be in the form of liquid, tablets or capsules that are taken orally or by injection. Compounds can be administered at any dose that is sufficient to significantly reduce, for example, levels of Aβ_(total) or more specifically Aβ₄₂ in the blood plasma, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), or brain.

To determine whether acute administration of the compound would reduce Aβ₄₂ levels in-vivo, two-three month old Tg2576 transgenic mice expressing APP₆₉₅ containing the “Swedish” variant could be used or any other appropriately validated transgenic model. This transgenic mouse displays spontaneous, progressive accumulation of β-amyloid (Aβ) in brain, eventually resulting in amyloid plaques within the subiculum, hippocampus and cortex. Animals of this age have high levels of Aβ in the brain but no detectable Aβ deposition. Mice treated with the compound would be examined and compared to those untreated or treated with vehicle and brain levels of soluble Aβ42 and total Aβ would be quantitated by standard techniques, for example, using ELISA. Treatments may be acute or sub-chronic and treatment periods may vary from hours to days or longer and can be adjusted based on the results of the biochemical endpoint once a time course of onset of effect can be established.

A typical protocol for measuring Aβ or Aβ₄₂ levels from in-vivo samples is shown but it is only one of many variations that could used to detect the levels of Aβ. For example, aliquots of compounds can be dissolved in DMSO (volume equal to 1/10th of the final formulation volume), vortexed and further diluted (1:10) with a 10% (w/v) hydroxypropyl β cyclodextrin (HBC, Aldrich, Ref N° 33, 260-7) solution in PBS, where after they are sonicated for 20 seconds.

-   -   Compounds may be administered as a single oral dose given three         to four hours before sacrifice and subsequent analysis or         alternatively could be given over a course of days and the         animals sacrificed three to four hours after the administration         of the final dose     -   Tg2576 mice can be anesthetized with a mixture of         ketamine/xylazine (80/16 mg/kg intraperitoneally). When a deep         level of anesthesia is reached, the mouse's head is secured in a         stereotaxic frame. The skin on the back of the neck is retracted         and the muscles on the back of the neck are removed to expose         the cisterna magna. CSF is collected from the cisterna magna         using a pulled 10 μl micropipette taking care not to contaminate         the CSF with blood. The CSF is immediately diluted 1:10 in 1%         3-[3-cholamidopropyl)-dimethyl-ammonio]-1-propane sulfonate         (CHAPS) [weight per volume in phosphate buffered saline (w/v in         PBS)] containing protease inhibitors (PI's) (Complete, Mini         protease inhibitor cocktail tablets-Roche), quick frozen in         liquid nitrogen and stored at −80° C. until ready for         biochemical analysis.

Blood is collected via cardiac puncture using a 25 gauge needle attached to a 1 ml syringe and was dispensed into a 0.6 ml microtainer tube containing ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA). The blood was centrifuged immediately at 4° C. for 5 minutes at 1500×G. The resulting plasma was aliquoted into 0.5 ml microcentrifuge tubes, the aliquots are quick frozen in liquid nitrogen and are stored at −80° C.

The brain is removed after removing the skull and is rinsed with PBS. The cerebellum/brain-stem is removed, frozen, and retained for drug exposure analysis; the remaining brain section was quartered. The rear right quarter, which contained cortex and hippocampus, is weighed, frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at −80° C. until ELISA analysis. The remaining brain tissue is frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at −80° C.

For total Aβ or Aβ₄₀ analysis brain tissue is homogenized at a volume of 24 ml/g in cold 1% CHAPS containing protease inhibitors and the resulting homogenates are centrifuged for 1 hour at 100,000×g at 4° C. The supernatant is removed and transferred to a fresh tube and further diluted to 240 ml/g in CHAPS with protease inhibitors.

For Aβ₄₂ analysis brain tissue is homogenized at a volume of 50 ml/g in cold 1% CHAPS containing PI's. Homogenates were spun for 1 hour at 100,000×g at 4° C. The supernatant is removed and transferred to a fresh tube and further to diluted to a final volume 66.7 ml/g in 1% CHAPS with protease inhibitors.

To quantify the amount of human Aβ₄₂ in the soluble fraction of the brain homogenates, commercially available Enzyme-Linked-Immunosorbent-Assay (ELISA) kits can be used (h Amyloid Aβ42 ELISA high sensitive, The Genetics Company, Zurich, Switzerland is just one of many examples). The ELISA is performed according to the manufacturer's protocol. Briefly, the standard (a dilution of synthetic Aβ1-42) and samples are prepared in a 96-well polypropylene plate without protein binding capacity (Greiner bio-one, Frickenhausen, Germany). The standard dilutions with final concentrations of 1000, 500, 250, 125, 62.5, 31.3 and 15.6 pg/ml and the samples are prepared in the sample diluent, furnished with the ELISA kit, to a final volume of 60 μl. Samples, standards and blanks (50 μl) are added to the anti-Aβ-coated polystyrol plate (capture antibody selectively recognizes the C-terminal end of the antigen) in addition with a selective anti-Aβ-antibody conjugate (biotinylated detection antibody) and incubated overnight at 4° C. in order to allow formation of the antibody-Amyloid-antibody-complex. The following day, a Streptavidine-Peroxidase-Conjugate is added, followed 30 minutes later by an addition of TMB/peroxide mixture, resulting in the conversion of the substrate into a colored product. This reaction is stopped by the addition of sulfuric acid (1M) and the color intensity is measured by means of photometry with an ELISA-reader with a 450 nm filter. Quantification of the Aβ content of the samples is obtained by comparing absorbance to a standard curve made with synthetic Aβ1-42.

Similar analysis, with minor modification, can be carried out with CSF (Diluted 1:10 (for a final loading dilution of 1:100) in 1% CHAPS containing PI and plasma samples (Diluted 1:15 in 0.1% CHAPS [w/v in PBS]).

Certain compounds of the disclosure may lower Aβ42 by >15%, in some cases certain compounds may lower Aβ42 >25% and in further cases certain compounds may lower Aβ42 >40% relative to basal levels.

In Vivo Studies (Rats)

Male Sprague Dawley rats from Harlan, 230-350 g, were used for studies. Fasted rats were dosed via oral gavage, with vehicle (15% Solutol HS 15, 10% EtOH, 75% Water) or compound, at a volume of 10 ml/kg. For PK studies, at fixed time points after dosing, the rats were euthanized with an excess of CO₂. Terminal blood was collected through cardiac puncture, mixed in EDTA tubes, immediately spun (3 min at 11,000 rpm at 4° C.), and snap frozen for plasma collection. A piece of frontal cortex was collected and snap frozen for compound level determination. For A-beta lowering studies, at a determined time point after dosing (Cmax if it is ≧3 hr), rats were euthanized as in the PK studies and plasma was collected as described above. Cerebellum was removed and saved for compound level determination, and the remaining brain was divided into 4 quadrants, snap frozen and saved to examine A-beta peptide levels.

Solutol HS 15 was purchased from Mutchler Inc.

Practitioners will also know that similar methods can also be applied to other species such as mice (including transgenic strains such as Tg2576), guinea pig, dog and monkey.

Analysis of In Vivo Aβ Lowering Studies

Compounds of the invention can be used to treat AD in mammal such as a human or alternatively in a validated animal model such as the mouse, rat, or guinea pig. The mammal may not be diagnosed with AD, or may not have a genetic predisposition for AD, but may be transgenic such that it overproduces and eventually deposits Aβ in a manner similar to that seen in the human. Alternatively, non-transgenic animals may also be used to determine the biochemical efficacy of the compound, that is, the effect on the Aβ biomarker, with an appropriate assay.

Compounds can be administered in any standard form using any standard method. For example, but not limited to, compounds can be in the form of liquid, tablets or capsules that are taken orally or by injection. Compounds can be administered at any dose that is sufficient to significantly reduce, for example, levels of Aβ_(total) or more specifically Aβ₄₂ in the blood plasma, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), or brain.

To determine whether acute administration of the compound would reduce Aβ₄₂ levels in-vivo, two-three month old non-transgenic Sprague-Dawley rats were used. Rats treated with the compound would be examined and compared to those untreated or treated with vehicle and brain levels of soluble Aβ₄₂ and Aβ_(total) would be quantitated by standard techniques, for example, using an immunoassay such as an ELISA. Treatments may be acute or sub-chronic and treatment periods may vary from hours to days or longer and can be adjusted based on the results of the biochemical endpoint once a time course of onset of effect can be established.

A typical protocol for measuring Aβ or Aβ₄₂ levels from in-vivo samples is shown but it is only one of many variations that could used to detect the levels of Aβ.

-   -   Compounds may be administered as a single oral dose given three         to four hours before sacrifice and subsequent analysis or         alternatively could be given over a course of days and the         animals sacrificed three to four hours after the administration         of the final dose.

For total Aβ or Aβ₄₂ analysis brain tissue is homogenized in ten volumes of ice cold 0.4% DEA/50 mM NaCl containing protease inhibitors, e.g., for 0.1 g of brain 1 ml of homogenization buffer is added. Homogenization is achieved either by sonciation for 30 seconds at 3-4 W of power or with a polytron homogenizer at three-quarters speed for 10-15 seconds. Homogenates (1.2 ml) are transferred to pre-chilled centrifuge tubes (Beckman 343778 polycarbonate tubes) are placed into a Beckman TLA120.2 rotor. Homogenates are centrifuged for 1 hour at 100,000 rpm (355,040×g) at 4° C. The resulting supernatants are transferred to fresh sample tubes and placed on ice (the pellets are discarded).

The samples are further concentrated and purified by passage over Waters 60 mg HLB Oasis columns according to the methods described (Lanz and Schachter (2006) J. Neurosci Methods. 157(1):71-81; Lanz and Schachter (2008). J. Neurosci Methods. 169(1):16-22). Briefly, using a vacuum manifold (Waters#WAT200607) the columns are attached and conditioned with 1 ml of methanol at a flow rate of 1 ml/minute. Columns are then equilibrated with 1 ml of water. Samples are loaded (800 μl) into individual columns (the Aβ will attach to the column resin).

The columns are washed sequentially with 1 ml of 5% methanol followed by 1 ml of 30% methanol. After the final wash the eluates are collected in 13×100 mm tubes by passing 800 μl of solution of 90% methanol/2% ammonium hydroxide) over the columns at 1 ml/minute. The samples are transferred to 1.5 ml non-siliconized sample tubes are dried in a speed-vac concentrator at medium heat for at least 2 hours or until dry.

The dried samples are either stored at −80° C. or are used immediately by resuspending the pellets in 80 μl of Ultra-Culture serum-free media (Lonza) supplemented with protease inhibitors by vortexing for 10 seconds. Sixty microliters of each sample is transferred to a pre-coated immunoassay plate coated with an affinity purified rabbit polyclonal antibody specific to Aβ₄₂ (x-42). Sixty microliters of fresh supplemented ultraculture is added to the remaining sample and 60 microliters is transferred to a pre-coated and BSA blocked immunoassay plate coated with an affinity purified rabbit polyclonal antibody specific to total rodent Aβ (1-x). Additional standard samples of rodent Aβ/rodent Aβ₄₂ are also added to the plates with final concentrations of 1000, 500, 250, 125, 62.5, 31.3 and 15.6 pg/ml. The samples are incubated overnight at 4° C. in order to allow formation of the antibody-Amyloid-antibody-complex. The following day the plates are washed 3-4 times with 150 microliters of phosphate buffered saline containing 0.05% Tween 20. After removal of the final wash 100 μl of the monoclonal antibody 4G8 conjugated to biotin (Covance) diluted 1:1000 in PBS-T containing 0.67% BSA was added and the plates incubated at room temperature for 1-2 hours. The plates are again washed 3-4 times with PBS-T and 100 μl of a Streptavidin-Peroxidase-Conjugate diluted 1:10,000 from a 0.5 mg/ml stock in PBS-T contained 0.67% BSA is added and the plates incubated for at least 30 minutes. Following a final set of washes in PBS-T, a TMB/peroxide mixture is added, resulting in the conversion of the substrate into a colored product. This reaction is stopped by the addition of sulfuric acid (1M) and the color intensity is measured by means of photometry with an microplate reader with a 450 nm filter. Quantification of the Aβ content of the samples is obtained by comparing absorbance to a standard curve made with synthetic Aβ. This is one example of a number of possible measureable endpoints for the immunoassay which would give similar results.

FIG. 1 demonstrates the desirable effect on Aβ after the administration of example 1301 (2-(5-chloro-4′-isopropyl-6-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)biphenyl-3-yl)-3-cyclopropylpropanoic acid) to in C57BL/6 mice when give one dose at 30 mg/kg in a Solutol HS 15: Ethanol:Water (15:10:75) formulation (measuring Aβ at 3 hours).

Pharmacokinetic Analysis Sample Preparation

Plasma samples and standards were prepared for analysis by treating with a 3× volume of acetonitrile containing 500 ng/mL of internal standard (a selected aryl propionic acid). Typically 150 μL of acetonitrile with internal standard was added to 50 μL of plasma. Acetonitrile was added first to each well of a 96-well Phenomenex Strata Impact protein precipitation filter plate followed by the addition of the plasma sample or standard. The filter plate was allowed to sit for at least 15 minutes at room temperature before a vacuum was applied to filter the samples into a clean 96-well plate.

If sample concentrations were observed or predicted to be greater than 1000 ng/mL, plasma samples were diluted with blank plasma 10-150 fold depending on the anticipated concentration and upper limit of quantitation of the analytical method.

Samples of frontal cortex or cerebellum were homogenized then treated in similar manner. To each brain sample, a 4× volume of PBS (pH 7.4) buffer was added along with a 15× volume of acetonitrile (containing internal standard) in a 2 mL screw-cap plastic tube. The tubes were then filled one third of the way with 1 mm zirconia/silica beads (Biospec) and placed in a Mini Bead Beater for 3 minutes. The samples were inspected and if any visible pieces of brain remained, they were returned to the Bead Beater for another 2-3 minutes of shaking. The resulting suspension was considered to be a 5-fold dilution treated with a 3× volume of acetonitrile (with internal standard). Calibration standards were prepared in 5-fold diluted blank brain homogenate and precipitated with a 3× volume of acetonitrile immediately after the addition of the appropriate spiking solution (see below). All brain standards and samples were allowed to sit for at least 15 minutes prior to filtering them through a Phenomenex Strata Impact protein precipitation filter plate into a clean 96-well plate.

Spiking solutions for plasma and brain calibration standards were prepared at concentrations of 0.02, 0.1, 0.2, 1, 2, 10, 20, 100 and 200 μg/mL in 50:50 acetonitrile/water. Calibration standards were prepared by taking 190 μL of blank matrix (plasma or brain homogenate) and adding 10 μL of spiking solution resulting in final concentrations of 1, 5, 10, 50, 100, 500, 1000, 5000 and 10,000 ng/mL.

LC-MS/MS Analysis

Precipitated plasma and brain samples were analyzed by LC-MS/MS using a Shimadzu LC system consisting of two LC-10AD pumps and a SIL-HTc autosampler connected to an Applied Biosystems MDS/Sciex API 3200 QTRAP mass spectrometer.

For chromatographic separation, a Phenomenex Luna C-18 3 μM (2×20 mm) column was used with an acetonitrile-based gradient mobile phase. The two mobile phase components were:

Mobile phase A: water with 0.05% (v/v) formic acid and 0.05% (v/v) 5 N ammonium hydroxide.

Mobile phase B: 95:5 acetonitrile/water with 0.05% (v/v) formic acid and 0.05% (v/v) 5 N ammonium hydroxide.

The gradient for each analysis was optimized for the specific compound, but generally, the run started with between 0% and 40% of mobile phase B, ramped up to 100% of mobile phase B over 1-2 minutes, then held there for 2-3 minutes before returning to the initial conditions for 4 minutes to re-equilibrate.

The API 3200 QTRAP mass spectrometer was used in MRM mode with negative electrospray ionization. MRM transitions and mass spec settings were optimized for each compound.

Standard curves were created by quadratic or linear regression with 1/x*x weighting. Calibration standards were prepared 1-10,000 ng/mL, but the highest (and sometimes lowest) standards were often not acceptable for quantitation and only those standards with reasonable back-calculated accuracies were included in the calibration curve. Ideally, only standards with +/−15% of nominal concentration would be included in the fitted standard curve, but occasionally larger deviations were accepted after careful consideration. Sample concentrations below the quantitation range were reported as “BQL”. Concentrations above the curve were usually re-run with larger sample dilutions

Glucuronidation Protocols

Microsomal glucuronidation reactions were conducted using the UGT Reaction Mix solutions (A and B) from BD Biosciences and following the vendor's protocol. 10 μM of test article or control compound was incubated with 0.5 mg/mL of human or rat liver microsomes. Samples were taken at 0 and 60 minutes and acetonitrile was added to terminate the reactions. Samples were analyzed by LC/MS, monitoring for the loss of parent compound and the appearance of glucuronide. Control reactions were run for each compound substituting water for the glucuronic acid solution to monitor for any loss of parent compound due to degradation or unanticipated microsomal reactions.

Hepatocyte experiments were run using cryopreserved human hepatocytes (single donor) obtained from Celsis/In Vitro Technologies. Cells were thawed and counted according to the vendor's protocols using the trypan blue exclusion method to obtain the count of live cells. Test article and control compounds were incubated at a concentration of 5 uM in KHB buffer (Celsis/In Vitro Technologies) containing 1 million cells per mL. Samples were taken at 0, 60 and 120 minutes. The reactions were terminated with addition of acetonitrile. Samples were analyzed by LC/MS, monitoring for the loss of parent compound and the appearance of glucuronide.

Pharmacology

Compounds of the disclosure are gamma secretase modulators (GSMs), i.e., compounds that act to shift the relative levels of Aβ peptides produced by γ-secretase. In some cases the compounds alter the relative levels of Aβ peptides produced by γ-secretase without significantly changing the total level of Aβ peptides produced. Certain compounds of the disclosure modulate γ-secretase activity with respect to APP proteolytic processing and in so doing lower the production of Aβ₄₂ both in vitro in cells and in vivo in animals. In some cases this effect occurs at concentrations that do not significantly impair the viability of cells in vitro and at doses that are well tolerated in vivo. Certain compounds of the disclosure lower Aβ₄₂ secretion in native neuronal and cellular construct assay systems with EC₅₀ values that are below 1 micromolar (Class A compounds, Table 14) while others have EC₅₀ values from 1-5 micromolar (Class B compounds, Table 14) and others have EC₅₀ values greater than 5 micromolar (Class C compounds). Certain compounds of the disclosure do not appear to significantly interfere with γ-secretase related Notch processing activity. Compounds that significantly interfere with γ-secretase related Notch processing activity have been associated with toxic side-effects. Certain compounds of the disclosure have favorable pharmacokinetic (PK) properties in animals. Thus, certain of the compounds are orally bioavailable, penetrate into the brain and have favorable PK parameters including half-life and clearance supporting pharmaceutical application in humans. In turn, certain compounds of the disclosure significantly lower Aβ₄₂ production in the brains of non-transgenic and transgenic animals after single dose and multi-dose oral administration with no overt side effects. For certain compounds of the disclosure single oral doses of <30 milligrams/kilogram are efficacious at lowering Aβ₄₂ production in the brains of rats (e.g. Sprague-Dawley) and wild type mice (e.g. C57BL/6). Certain compounds of the disclosure which lower Aβ₄₂ at doses of <30 milligrams/kilogram appear to be well tolerated and show no overt or clinical chemical toxicity after subchronic 14-day administration at doses >30 milligrams/kilogram/day. Certain compounds of the disclosure have favorable absorption-distribution-metabolism and excretion (ADME) properties. Moreover, certain compounds of the disclosure do not appear to significantly bio-accumulate in tissues especially in the brain. Compounds of Formulas I-IX wherein A=CO₂H show favorable profiles with respect to acylglucoronide (A=CO₂Glu) metabolite formation. The potential for acylglucoronide metabolites to cause of toxicity has been described particularly for non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) containing carboxylic acid groups (Ebner et al Drug Metabolism and Disposition 1999, 27(10), 1143-49). Several such NSAIDs have been removed from the market due to idiosyncratic toxicity in humans and it has been speculated that NSAID idiosyncratic toxicity is related to the relative load and relative reactivity of acylglucoronide metabolites. Therefore, carboxylic acid compounds which are less prone to acylgluconoride formation are expected to be less toxic. As measured using established in vitro assay systems, certain desirable compounds of the disclosure are less prone to acylglucoronidation than NSAID compounds that remain on the market are regarded as safe (e.g., flurbiprofen).

The injection can be, for example, in the form of a bolus injection or continuous infusion (e.g., using infusion pumps) of pharmaceutical composition.

In one embodiment, the pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound of Formulas I-IX is administered by lateral cerebro ventricular injection into the brain of a subject. The injection can be made, for example, through a burr hole made in the subject's skull. In another embodiment, the encapsulated therapeutic agent is administered through a surgically inserted shunt into the cerebral ventricle of a subject. For example, the injection can be made into the lateral ventricles, which are larger, even though injection into the third and fourth smaller ventricles can also be made.

In yet another embodiment, the pharmaceutical composition is administered by injection into the cisterna magna, or lumbar area of a subject.

For oral administration, the compounds will generally be provided in unit dosage forms of a tablet, pill, dragee, lozenge or capsule; as a powder or granules; or as an aqueous solution, suspension, liquid, gels, syrup, slurry, etc. suitable for ingestion by the patient. Tablets for oral use may include the active ingredients mixed with pharmaceutically acceptable excipients such as inert diluents, disintegrating agents, binding agents, lubricating agents, sweetening agents, flavoring agents, coloring agents and preservatives.

Aqueous suspensions may include suspending agents such as cellulose derivatives, sodium alginate, polyvinyl-pyrrolidone and gum tragacanth, and a wetting agent such as lecithin. Suitable preservatives for aqueous suspensions include ethyl and n-propyl p-hydroxybenzoate.

The suppositories for rectal administration of the drug can be prepared by mixing the drug with a suitable non-irritating excipient which is solid at ordinary temperatures but liquid at the rectal temperatures and will therefore melt in the rectum to release the drug. Such materials are cocoa butter and polyethylene glycols.

The compounds can be delivered transdermally, by a topical route, formulated as applicator sticks, solutions, suspensions, emulsions, gels, creams, ointments, pastes, jellies, paints, powders, or aerosols.

The compounds may also be presented as aqueous or liposome formulations. Aqueous suspensions can contain a compound of Formulas I-IX in admixture with excipients suitable for the manufacture of aqueous suspensions. Such excipients include a suspending agent, such as sodium carboxymethylcellulose, methylcellulose, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, sodium alginate, polyvinylpyrrolidone, gum tragacanth and gum acacia, and dispersing or wetting agents such as a naturally occurring phosphatide (e.g., lecithin), a condensation product of an alkylene oxide with a fatty acid (e.g., polyoxyethylene stearate), a condensation product of ethylene oxide with a long chain aliphatic alcohol (e.g., heptadecaethylene oxycetanol), a condensation product of ethylene oxide with a partial ester derived from a fatty acid and a hexitol (e.g., polyoxyethylene sorbitol mono-oleate), or a condensation product of ethylene oxide with a partial ester derived from fatty acid and a hexitol anhydride (e.g., polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate). The aqueous suspension can also contain one or more preservatives such as ethyl or n-propyl p-hydroxybenzoate, one or more coloring agents, one or more flavoring agents and one or more sweetening agents, such as sucrose, aspartame or saccharin. Formulations can be adjusted for osmolarity.

Oil suspensions can be formulated by suspending a compound of Formulas I-IX in a vegetable oil, such as arachis oil, olive oil, sesame oil or coconut oil, or in a mineral oil such as liquid paraffin; or a mixture of these. The oil suspensions can contain a thickening agent, such as beeswax, hard paraffin or cetyl alcohol. Sweetening agents can be added to provide a palatable oral preparation, such as glycerol, sorbitol or sucrose. These formulations can be preserved by the addition of an antioxidant such as ascorbic acid. As an example of an injectable oil vehicle, see Minto, J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther. 281:93-102, 1997. The pharmaceutical formulations can also be in the form of oil-in-water emulsions. The oily phase can be a vegetable oil or a mineral oil, described above, or a mixture of these. Suitable emulsifying agents include naturally-occurring gums, such as gum acacia and gum tragacanth, naturally occurring phosphatides, such as soybean lecithin, esters or partial esters derived from fatty acids and hexitol anhydrides, such as sorbitan mono-oleate, and condensation products of these partial esters with ethylene oxide, such as polyoxyethylene sorbitan mono-oleate. The emulsion can also contain sweetening agents and flavoring agents, as in the formulation of syrups and elixirs. Such formulations can also contain a demulcent, a preservative, or a coloring agent.

In addition to the formulations described previously, the compounds may also be formulated as a depot preparation. Such long acting formulations may be administered by implantation or transcutaneous delivery (e.g., subcutaneously or intramuscularly), intramuscular injection or a transdermal patch. Thus, for example, the compounds may be formulated with suitable polymeric or hydrophobic materials (e.g., as an emulsion in an acceptable oil) or ion exchange resins, or as sparingly soluble derivatives, for example, as a sparingly soluble salt.

The pharmaceutical compositions also may comprise suitable solid or gel phase carriers or excipients. Examples of such carriers or excipients include but are not limited to calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate, various sugars, starches, cellulose derivatives, gelatin, and polymers such as polyethylene glycols.

For administration by inhalation, the compounds are conveniently delivered in the form of an aerosol spray presentation from pressurized packs or a nebulizer, with the use of a suitable propellant, e.g., dichlorodifluoromethane, trichlorofluoromethane, dichlorotetrafluoroethane, carbon dioxide or other suitable gas. In the case of a pressurized aerosol the dosage unit may be determined by providing a valve to deliver a metered amount. Capsules and cartridges of e.g., gelatin for use in an inhaler or insufflator may be formulated containing a powder mix of the compound and a suitable powder base such as lactose or starch.

In general a suitable dose will be in the range of 0.01 to 100 mg per kilogram body weight of the recipient per day, preferably in the range of 0.2 to 10 mg per kilogram body weight per day. The desired dose is preferably presented once daily, but may be dosed as two, three, four, five, six or more sub-doses administered at appropriate intervals throughout the day.

The compounds can be administered as the sole active agent, or in combination with other known therapeutics to be beneficial in the treatment of neurological disorders. In any event, the administering physician can provide a method of treatment that is prophylactic or therapeutic by adjusting the amount and timing of drug administration on the basis of observations of one or more symptoms (e.g., motor or cognitive function as measured by standard clinical scales or assessments) of the disorder being treated.

Details on techniques for formulation and administration are well described in the scientific and patent literature, see, e.g., the latest edition of Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, Maack Publishing Co, Easton Pa. (“Remington's After a pharmaceutical composition has been formulated in an acceptable carrier, it can be placed in an appropriate container and labeled for treatment of an indicated condition. For administration of the compounds of Formulas I-IX, such labeling would include, e.g., instructions concerning the amount, frequency and method of administration.
